Ellen Gault, marketing manager, Taco Bell UK & Europe, said: “Since the launch of Taco Bell in Southampton, we’ve noticed a real hunger for quick Mexican-inspired food in the South of England and are really pleased to be opening our second restaurant in Poole.

“There is such a strong demand for Taco Bell across the UK, so it’s a great feeling to be able to open in new locations like Poole and welcome customers through our doors.”

To celebrate the Poole opening, Taco Bell will hide two ‘golden tacos’ across the city centre, with clues on social media that rewards the winners with a year’s supply of Taco Bell.
